Impact Ball wasn't especially efficient, but he still stuffed the stat sheet like usual. Tuesday's effort marked his fourth straight game with at least 22 points and his fifth straight game with at least one steal.

Rough shooting night in loss Ball closed Saturday's 125-118 loss to the Grizzlies with 25 points (8-21 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 33 minutes.
Impact Ball might have delivered a solid stat line in terms of scoring, but the fact that he needed 21 shots to score 25 points was not ideal -- and his passing and rebounding numbers were not really on par with what he's done all season long. The second-year guard still salvaged his fantasy day due to his scoring, but this wasn't one of his finest performances.

Highlight package despite loss Ball racked up 33 points (12-25 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and four steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 121-109 loss to Chicago.
Impact Ball was excellent Wednesday, even making four steals for the second consecutive game. As a team, Charlotte shot just 30.2 percent (13-for-43) from beyond the arc, holding back Ball's assist ceiling. Charlotte has lost six consecutive games, making it especially relevant whether any help is brought in before the Feb. 10 deadline.

Struggles with shot in loss Ball amassed 15 points (5-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and four steals over 44 minutes during Monday's 116-101 loss to the Raptors.
Impact After scoring a career-high 38 points Friday, Ball has shot just 34.1 percent form the field over his last three contests. However, he's still been able to score in double figures in each of those games. He salvaged his fantasy production by dishing out a team-high nine assists and snatching four-plus steals for the fifth time this season. Ball continues to be a sporadic scorer, but his contributions across the box score make him a reliable fantasy option moving forward.
